chuck grassley and mike grapple. so when the nra said it is okay to vote yes, they did. when the nra said vote no, they did. we say jump. you say how high. >> a stream of comments on twitter by the way at bpshow, please follow us there. you could play along with the show. lots of people stand with joey, our last caller. they're just as upset as he is. john also says when someone gets a gun from a gun show or a person and does a massacre, these politicians will be called to account. and sam says the senate in its present form is broken, not capable of serving the american people. find us at bpshow on twitter. >> bill: again the argument that this is government gone too far is just so -- it doesn't even pass the laugh test. we have background checks and we have since 1994 at gun dealers. if it makes sense to get a criminal check for somebody buying a gun at a gun dealer you tell me why it doesn't also make sense to have a criminal background check for somebody buying a gun at a gun show. or on the internet. i mean, there's no way with a straight face, you can make the argu
